Chapter 499 I just want to see her
"From today on, have them send all their business matters to my house. I am not feeling well and will not be leaving the house for the time being."
Xiao Shihang really never went out again after that. He would occasionally meet business people, but that was all.
The secret guards sent out would also follow the people to the Jiangning Palace, but they would not be able to find anything unusual.
Lying on the bed at night, Su Ying half closed her eyes and prepared to dream. When she was in a semi-conscious state, Xiao Jin hugged her from behind.
Su Ying subconsciously leaned into his arms. It was a little chilly at night, and it would be warmer sleeping against him.
Xiao Jin's warm big palm fell on her flat belly and rubbed it back and forth. Su Ying grabbed his hand and held it on her lower back. Her period happened to come tonight and she felt a little uncomfortable.
"Your uncle, isn't he planning to rebel?"
Xiao Jin placed his palm on her lower back, gathering strength in his palm and slowly transferring heat into her body.
"If he has changed his gender, it is not impossible."
In Xiao Jin's memory, Prince Jiangning has been a playboy since he was old enough to understand.
Both the previous emperor and the grandfather emperor had given him many opportunities to make a name for himself in the court, but he always messed things up due to eating, drinking and having fun, and then let his brothers and his own father clean up the mess for him.
After the late emperor ascended the throne, if he had not been afraid of being accused of suppressing his brothers, he would have been reluctant to place the dangerous Prince Jiangning in the court. Later, when Prince Jiangning made another mistake, he completely let him pack up and go play on his own.
After all this time, if we talk about where to eat and have fun in the capital, no one knows better than Prince Jiangning.
"He doesn't have such an idea, but his son may not."
"kindness."
Xiao Jin kissed the corner of her pale lips, "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Su Ying frowned slightly, "This time it is a little bit."
"Don't try to cool down next time."
A few days ago, she suddenly wanted to eat ice cream, and Uncle He made ice cream for her for two consecutive days. She felt comfortable eating it, but it was useless to force out the cold air she had eaten, which caused the cold air to flow downward and torture her during her menstrual period.
She didn't know why, but ever since she came here, she would always crave to eat something before her period, the kind that she would think about in her dreams.
For example, this time I wanted to eat something ice-cold, and no one could persuade me otherwise.
"Then let's eat something spicy next time."
Those who eat spicy food complain that their stomachs will be burned. Xiao Jin thinks that he should ask Uncle He to cook lighter meals. Su Ying is strong enough, but her stomach cannot be easily stimulated.
Su Ying didn't sleep well that night and didn't get up until noon the next day.
Bai Shuang received Xiao Jin's instructions early in the morning and went to the imperial kitchen to prepare a large bowl of eggnog sweet soup.
"My queen, you should first eat some sweet soup to warm your stomach and drive out the coldness in your body."
Last night, Xiao Jin had been sending heat to her lower back, so she felt much more comfortable when she woke up in the morning.
"Wouldn't it be too greasy to eat this so early in the morning?"
"The emperor specifically instructed the imperial kitchen to put less sugar in it, so it's just a little bit sweet."
Su Ying took a sip of the sweet soup. It was indeed not too sweet. She drank it in just a few gulps and burped, which forced out the cold air that had been forced into her stomach yesterday. The feeling of bloating in her stomach also disappeared.
"Women are trouble."
As strong as she is, she has to be careful even when she has her period.
"It's always uncomfortable when your period comes. Your Majesty, just rest in the palace for the next two days and don't go anywhere."
Su Ying nodded and took the opportunity to take a rest.
In the imperial study, Xiao Jin had just finished discussing state affairs with several ministers. It was almost noon, and he was about to go back to Fengluan Palace when he heard Zhang Shuming say, "Your Majesty, Lord Zhu wants to see you."
Ever since Su Ying disappeared, Zhu Lin has been leading people to search for Su Ying's whereabouts. It was not until Xiao Jin confirmed Su Ying's whereabouts that he recalled Zhu Lin to the capital. However, Zhu Lin fell ill just after returning to the capital. He only recovered two days ago and returned to court today.
"Let him in."
Zhu Lin walked into the inner hall and bowed.
Xiao Jin asked, "Lord Zhu, is there anything wrong?"
Zhu Lin raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask the Queen to see me and ask her about the Cangjiang Dam."
Xiao Jin frowned, "What do you want to ask?"
"I just want to ask what Your Majesty used to block the dam."
The reason why Su Ying fell off the dam was because she was trying to block the crack in the dam. Now the flood season of Cangjiang River has passed, and Xiao Jin also sent people to repair the old dam, but the things that Su Ying used to repair the dam could not be taken down, and they didn't know what they were.
This question really needs to be asked to Su Ying in detail.
"I will ask about this."
Zhu Lin looked up at Xiao Jin again, and after a long pause he finally spoke: "Your Majesty, is the Queen really okay?"
"fine."
In fact, Zhu Lin really wanted to meet Su Ying. Although this idea was against the rules, he really wanted to see the real Su Ying.
"Your Majesty, could you allow me to see the Queen? Let me ask you in person."
Xiao Jin frowned in displeasure. Su Ying was not feeling well last night and he didn't want to let Su Ying suffer in order to fulfill Zhu Lin's wish.
"no."
"Your Majesty...I really feel sad if I cannot see the queen in person, Your Majesty..." Zhu Lin's eyes turned red as he spoke. He knelt in front of Xiao Jin and stretched out his hand to grab Xiao Jin's trouser leg, but was kicked to the ground by Xiao Jin.
"Zhu Lin, I think you are too tight-lipped. I'll use the rod to loosen your grip."
"Your Majesty, even if you want to beat me with a stick, I have no complaints. I only ask to see the Queen..."
The veins on Xiao Jin's forehead twitched.
"Your Majesty, please help me. I swear that I will never let Your Majesty know that when you were a child, you fell from a tree while trying to get bird eggs and ended up sitting on dog shit, and that you tried to catch fish in the pond but ended up pushing our grandfather into the water..."
"Zhu Lin, shut up!"
Quarter of an hour later, Su Ying arrived outside the imperial study in a sedan chair.
She walked out of the sedan chair, and Zhu Lin, who had been waiting outside the door, walked quickly forward and stopped three steps away from Su Ying.
Su Ying stared at the person in front of her in shock for a moment.
He was wearing a wide silver-white robe, and the jade belt around his waist weakened the solemnity of the robe, making him look more like a scholarly young man. Su Ying's gaze went straight up along the robe, and she was surprised when she met Zhu Lin's eyes, which were dark and bloodshot.
“Zhu Lin, have you taken the drug?” Not only were his eyes red and lifeless, but even his cheeks, which had been quite rosy and plump before, were now sunken. His face was dark and yellow. Where was the shadow of his former charm?
Zhu Lin swore that in his twenty years of life, he had never felt that there was any voice more beautiful than Su Ying's at this moment.
"My Lady...you, you are really still alive!"
Su Ying frowned, "Your eyes are so red, are you crying for me?"
